Heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification (HNAD) sludge were successfully acclimated. The effects of organics and dissolved oxygen (DO) on nitrogen and phosphorus removal by the HNAD sludge were investigated. The nitrogen can be heterotrophically nitrified and denitrified in the sludge at a DO of 6 mg/L. The TOC/N (total organic carbon to nitrogen) ratio of 3 was found to result in removal efficiencies of over 88% for nitrogen and 99% for phosphorus. The use of demand-driven aeration with a TOC/N ratio of 1.7 improved nitrogen and phosphorus removal from 35.68% and 48.17% to 68% and 93%, respectively. The kinetics analysis generated an empirical formula, Ammonia oxidation rate = 0.08917·(TOC·Ammonia)·Biomass. The nitrogen, carbon, glycogen, and poly-β-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) metabolism pathways of HNAD sludge were constructed using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). The findings suggest that heterotrophic nitrification precedes aerobic denitrification, glycogen synthesis, and PHB synthesis.

The relationship of microbial community and cometabolic consumption of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) in a nitrifying sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was studied. The assessment of the population dynamics of the nitrifying sludge during the cometabolic 2-CP consumption with increasing ammonium (NH) concentrations in the SBR showed the presence of 39 different species of which 10 were always present in all cycles. Fifty-five percent of the species found were grouped as Proteobacteria (45% as β-proteobacteria and 10% as γ-proteobacteria class), 30% as Acidobacteria, and 15% as Deinococcus-Thermus phyla.

Ammonia nitrogen (NH-N) discharge has caused eutrophication of water bodies and harm to humans and organisms. In this work, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), diatomite (DE), and FeO were used to prepare magnetic immobilized carriers by encapsulating microorganisms for the treatment of NH-N wastewater. The response surface methodology was used to explore the optimal ratio of the immobilized carriers.

Considering the unsatisfied nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) treatment performance of mariculture wastewater caused by low carbon/nitrogen (C/N), a novel iron-carbon (Fe-C) micro-electrolysis coupled to heterotrophic nitrification aerobic denitrification (HNAD) process was proposed to enhance the N and P elimination. Results revealed that total nitrogen (TN) removal and total phosphorus (TP) removal efficiencies in Fe-C filter with HNAD (R-Fe) increased by 76.1% and 113.

Nitrification by heterotrophic microorganisms is an important part of the nitrogen cycle in the environment. The enzyme responsible for the core function of heterotrophic nitrification is pyruvic oxime dioxygenase (POD). POD is a non-heme, Fe(II)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the dioxygenation of pyruvic oxime to produce pyruvate and nitrite.

A novel bacterial strain, DGFC5, was isolated from a municipal sewage disposal system. It efficiently removed ammonium, nitrate, and nitrite under conditions of 5% salinity, without intermediate accumulation. Provided with a mixed nitrogen source, DGFC5 showed a higher utilization priority for NH-N.
